    not surprised, they make their customers fat first

    and then the only suspension system which can handle the family's collective weight and fit them is the Hummer. After all, why should an overweight Mc D's customer bother walking to their favorite fishing spot through the woods, too tiring, hard to do with all of the shakes gone to the thighs... just drive the hummer right through the woods, over the rocks, flatten a few wildlife and watch them pour like melted crisco globs out the door of the humer into a blob by right by the lake....

    And if they catch anything... well, it can almost be as good as a burger if it goes into the promotional hummer deep fryer attachment right away.... mmmmmmmMMMMMmmmm just hear those arteries clogging.

      Thats the whole idea in marketing. I've walked past young kids ages 7 or 8 and hear them gleam "ooo hummer" as one of those H3s pass by them. It sickens me that these ignorant kids are being brainwashed at such a young age. There are even Hummer RCs, Hummer T-shirts etc.
